Chapter 954: The Realm of the Supreme Consciousness
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yue Tingge hastily brought Qin Mu, the divine dragon he visualized, and Luo Wushuang along.
This Daoist suddenly became ferocious-looking again as he sneakily looked around. Whenever there was a disturbance, he would hide in a bush or behind a tree as if someone intended to harm him.
The divine dragon also clumsily hid with him in a sneaky manner.
Qin Mu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and he asked why Yue Tingge did what he did. Yue Tingge coldly laughed. “This world is hostile towards me! It monitors my every move to harm me! If I’m not careful, I’ll die!”
He looked around nervously, then lowered his voice and said, “I have to tell you a secret, the Land of the Great Void is alive! It monitors every action of ours and listens in on our conversations! It will create all sorts of accidents to get rid of us…”
Qin Mu and Luo Wushuang looked at one another. The jumpiness and overanxiety of an expert at the Emperor’s Throne Great Completion Realm like Yue Tingge, who was almost as powerful as Dao Ancestor and Brahma Buddha, surprised them.
“Stop!”
Yue Tingge suddenly became very nervous, and he crawled on the ground, sniffing it. The divine dragon followed him and imitated him.
Yue Tingge lifted his head, which was filled with the color of fear, before suddenly running away and calling out, “They’re here!”
Qin Mu was stunned, but he still followed him. Luo Wushuang also followed them, for he had no choice, but not before saying, “Overlord Body Qin, this Heavenly Master Yue is indeed crazy. If he wants to kill us, none of us can withstand it! We should keep our distance.”
Qin Mu had some doubts about that.
Although Yue Tingge was clearly not in a normal state, a strong expert like him usually wouldn’t go crazy just because he was stuck here for ten thousand years. Was his brain wrecked by Celestial Empress?
Of course, following this lunatic could indeed be treacherous since no one knew what he was going to do next.
The divine dragon followed them, still sniffing around. Suddenly, he seemed to have sniffed something. He shook his nose violently and said, with some doubt, “Maha?”
Qin Mu and the others were far away when the divine dragon was about to catch up. At that moment, the earth split open, and thousands of acres of land became a giant eyeball!
That giant eyeball rolled around and looked at Qin Mu and the others from far away.
The divine dragon was spooked, and all of its scales rose in unison. It fled quickly towards Qin Mu and the others.
“Maha Maha!” The divine dragon ran circles around Qin Mu, trying to tell him what he saw.
“Are you hungry again?” Qin Mu asked.
“Ma ha!”
The divine dragon ran around Qin Mu even faster, as he didn’t know how to describe what he saw. He looked back and saw that the ground was flat again, with the giant eyeball nowhere to be seen.
“Maha?” The divine dragon lifted his claws to scratch his head, clearly confused.
Suddenly, not far away, a large mountain cracked open to reveal a giant eyeball rolling around. Its pupil shrank, and its gaze was focused on Qin Mu and the others.
The mountain beside it turned into a giant ear instead!
The divine dragon’s scales stood again, and he rushed to Qin Mu, pointing at the mountain with his claws, exclaiming, “Maha!”
Qin Mu looked back and saw nothing, just mountains, as the eye and ear had disappeared and returned to the mountains.
“This dragon is crazy too.”
Luo Wushuang suggested, “We should kill it and eat it.”
The divine dragon lowered its head and followed them listlessly.
The divine dragon was unable to talk and tell Qin Mu and the others that he wasn’t crazy, that this Land of the Great Void was indeed alive and was spying on them.
Not long after, the dragon saw the blue sky above them morph into a giant eyeball, but he lacked the courage to tell the rest. He weakly said, “Maha…”
He did the same thing when he saw a giant tree morph into a giant ear.
Qin Mu and the rest followed Yue Tingge, who was unusually careful as he said, “This place is very treacherous despite how quiet it is. I was only able to survive because of my wit. Good brother…”
He caressed the roasted beast leg and gently said, “Good brother, there is only you and me here. Let’s be brothers forever… Who are you guys?”
He was alarmed when he suddenly saw Qin Mu, Luo Wushuang, and the divine dragon following him.
Qin Mu coughed and said, “Heavenly Master Yue, we are…”
“I remember you guys!”
Yue Tingge had a realization and threw that beast leg, saying, “Celestial Venerable Mu, one-armed one. Of course, I remember you guys. Hehe. We must be careful where we are going. I’ll tell you guys a secret, the Land of the Great Void is alive…”
When the beast leg fell on the ground, it made a loud sound, and Yue Tingge looked at it in an alarmed fashion. He coldly said, “Tempting me with a roasted beast leg? Did you think I would fall for it? Do you think I’m a three-year-old kid? Let’s go quickly, they’re spying on us! We must find Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu quickly. That fellow Founding Emperor is coming!”
Qin Mu’s scalp turned numb. He wanted to leave, but upon hearing that Founding Emperor was coming, he had no choice but to follow him.
Yue Tingge continued leading them. It was then that Qin Mu suddenly discovered that Yue Tingge’s head had become a cube when walking, like a box, a box with rectangular eyes, ears, nose, and mouth!
This heavenly master’s neck, body, and limbs also became cubes, with each part of his fingers also becoming interlocking cubes!
Qin Mu and Luo Wushuang were shocked. They soon discovered that they had also become cuboids like Yue Tingge!
Qin Mu turned around to look at the divine dragon and discovered that he had become a weird creature made out of interlocking cubes as well!
The trees, leaves, mountains, and even the water flowing in the river were cubes!
‘This is… the weird divine art that the Great Void’s masters of creation visualized with their consciousnesses! In other words, they created another illusionary world in the Great Void that plays by different rules from the outside world!’
Qin Mu looked up and saw that the clouds above were rectangular, as was the sun. He retrieved his sword pellet, which was also a cube!
He utilized his magic power, and the sword pellet morphed into a treasure sword that was made out of cubes too!
Qin Mu opened his third eye, which remained normal and wasn’t a cuboid.
He gathered his consciousness and forced it into the Grand Primordium Origin Stone, hollering, “Break!”
His consciousness was extremely strong, and he used it to utilize the Grand Primordium Origin Stone, which became stronger. However, when it came out of his eye, it became a flying cuboid consciousness.
Qin Mu’s eyes were wide open, and he was perplexed.
This didn’t feel like an illusion, it felt more like the real world.
Suddenly, Shu Jun’s voice appeared, laughing. “Do you know your weakness now? This land is the strongest realm created by the strongest master of creation using the supreme consciousness. One is bound by its Great Dao rules upon entering, becoming its being. Only the Grand Primordium Origin Stone isn’t affected by it.”
Despite being outside the Grand Primordium Origin Stone, he wasn’t affected by the outside and remained as a big head on the sacrificial altar. It was just that it was empty, and it only had two eyes.
Qin Mu’s heart trembled, and he asked, “How can I break this?”
“You can’t.”
Shu Jun’s head flew from the sacrificial altar and out of the Grand Primordium Origin Stone and Qin Mu’s eye as he mockingly laughed and said, “Do lowly creatures like you actually think you can break the supreme consciousness? It traps you, but not a strong being like me! I’ll find out which step this master of creation’s supreme consciousness is at!”
When he flew out of Qin Mu’s eye, his body was instantly changed by the realm, and his head became a large cube as well.
Shu Jun was shocked, and both of his eyeballs flew out of the sockets and became two flying cubes attached to his head by more cubes.
“He was the only being I was inferior to in my prime. However, it shouldn’t be difficult to break it… Break!”
He used way more of his consciousness than Qin Mu, yet when his consciousness divine art flew out, it had the same effect as Qin Mu’s, becoming countless flying transparent cubes.
“This master of creation is stronger than me.”
Shu Jun immediately became listless and said, “Hehe, my brain isn’t fully restored, so it’s difficult to break his supreme consciousness…”
He laughed for a little bit and was about to fly back into Qin Mu’s eye when Yue Tingge hugged him and caressed his head, gently saying, “I finally found you, good brother…”
Shu Jun felt a chill down his spine and immediately transmitted his voice via his consciousness, saying, “Brat with the surname Qin, get this lunatic off of me!”
Qin Mu pretended not to hear him, thinking, ‘Although Shu Jun is useful, he’s a devious person that’s always trying to trick me. It’s a good thing that he left the Grand Primordium Origin Stone. However, I hope that Heavenly Master Yue doesn’t kill him since he still knows many secrets of the masters of creation and their divine arts. He might even have better techniques than the Three Enclosures Higher Knowledge…’
Shu Jun hurriedly transmitted his voice via his consciousness, but Qin Mu still didn’t respond. He began to panic.
Yue Tingge clamped him under his armpit and hurried forward, saying quietly, “We’ll reach that place soon. When we arrive there, we can harm another Celestial Venerable, hehehe…”
Shu Jun couldn’t move, so he accepted his fate.
While walking, Qin Mu discovered that Yue Tingge became a paper man!
The same happened to his vital organs and body, and Qin Mu and Luo Wushuang could see his eyes, nose, and mouth from behind!
They could even see the makeup of his brain and his vital organs!
It was like he became a creature made out of strings, like a moving humanoid painting!
Not only did Yue Tingge become a paper man, but Shu Jun became a paper skull!
However, Shu Jun’s head was empty since he had no brain.
The surrounding mountains, plants, and rivers also looked like their counterparts in paintings. The river flowed on the ground, and the mountains and plants stood beside it. The white clouds floating in the sky were also pieces of white paper. This whole sight was peculiar to the point that no words could describe it.
Qin Mu lowered his head, and expectedly, he too became a paper man, and he could see his vital organs and the structure of his corporeal body clearly by looking down!
The only thing that still didn’t change was his third eye.
The Grand Primordium Origin Stone was strong enough to withstand the assault of this peculiar supreme consciousness realm. Their corporeal bodies, however, weren’t so strong.
‘This is different from the painting path. It tries to paint a realistic world. However, this supreme consciousness realm wishes for us to become paintings on a piece of paper,’ Qin Mu blinked as he thought.
“We will be there soon, we will be there soon…” Yue Tingge mumbled repeatedly.
Suddenly, he threw Shu Jun on the ground, ran forward, and laughed. “Quickly, come here! We’ll be arriving soon!”
Qin Mu, Luo Wushuang, and the divine dragon followed him quickly, as did Shu Jun. With his paper head floating behind Qin Mu, Shu Jun said unnervingly, “The supreme consciousness realm’s strength is growing. This master of creation is way stronger than me when I was alive. I’m not his opponent. We shouldn’t delve any deeper. We should be able to make it if we leave now…”
Suddenly, Yue Tingge’s body changed again, becoming a flying light spot.
Luo Wushuang and the divine dragon also became light spots, as did Shu Jun when Qin Mu looked at him. Qin Mu, however, became an eyeball and a small light spot.
Yue Tingge flew forward cheerfully, calling out to them, “Look!”
The four light spots flew with him, and a giant creature appeared in their sight.
One of the light spots stopped abruptly. It was Shu Jun, and he was trembling and losing control of his consciousness.
“Grand… Grand… Grand Emperor!” Shu Jun cried out bitterly.
